B.O.B. - New York, New York Lyrics
Verse 1:This is the finish my friend, this is the endIt's a revolution, it's a civilian revengeThere's no need to move or adjust your televisionWhenever an era dies, another era beginsThese American fights, these American warsThese American stripes, these American stars,But these American cages have American barsWe hunger for truth, so we headed for ya'llTowers are crumbling, bridges are fallingLimits are fading, but normal is boringLooking at time move, aggressively forwardLooking at days just, just vanish before meYou wanted the Benz, but you couldn't afford itNow you would kill to put your foot in a TaurusIt's a different madness, they would never abandon usBut this is a crisis, prepare for disaster Chorus:Start spreading the news (start, start, start, start spreading the news)I'm leaving today (and I'm gone, and I'm gone, and I'm gone just like that )I want to be a part of it (be, be, be, be, yea)New York, New York, New YorkBreaker breaker nine breaker breaker one nineCould you please get an operator on the phone lineThis is not a riot, it's way much more than thatThese people are dying, we are under attackWait, let me call you back, let me get my strap(cause) We ain't taking shit, so therefore we're fighting backWe ain't waiting on the line for a 9-1-1-9-9 whatever man,I ain't got time for all this nonsenseEnemy responses, ain't a dial tone in our home on that continentGot me in these bandages, this jungle that's up under meMan I swear they sleeping in your conscience, so they slumberingSo we break the peace to get a piece of what we wanted yeaAct like we new to this, not think I'm rummaging Let them know we run this shitAnd let them know just how you feel the way your country isNow look how beautiful destruction is, bloahStart spreading the news (start spreading the news)I'm leaving today (I'm leaving, I'm leaving yea)I want to be a part of it (be a part of New York)New York, New York, (New York) New York
